Mojang Studios is working with our talented sister studio King (creators of Candy Crush Saga) on a new Minecraft puzzle mobile game: Minecraft Blast!
The game is still under development, and it will be released for playtests in selected markets to help us gather feedback and involve our community from the start. The current playtest is now live for a limited time, with the game available for players in Malaysia, Canada and Australia.
We’re excited to be on this journey with King and look forward to sharing more information about the game as the project progresses. All future announcements and news about Minecraft Blast will be shared on this page.

Frequently asked questions
Minecraft Blast is a match puzzle game set in an evolving Minecraft world. It offers quick, easy-to-jump-in-and-play sessions, combining modern fun blast gameplay with the ability to unlock and build imaginative Minecraft-style spaces. The game is free-to-play with optional in-app purchases.
This playtest will be available on both the Apple App Store and Google Play in Australia, Canada, and Malaysia, with language support for English and French. We hope to expand to additional markets in future playtests.
We’re releasing the game in a limited number of countries for approximately four weeks to gather early player feedback and improve the experience before a broader release. This is a common practice in mobile game development, and these regions were selected based on specific testing requirements.
At this time, the playtest is only available to players located in Australia, Canada, or Malaysia. We understand that many players around the world are excited to try Minecraft Blast, and we appreciate your enthusiasm! But don't worry – more regions will be included down the road!
During testing, you'll be able to experience many of Minecraft Blast's core features, including puzzle gameplay, progression, live events, customisation, an in-game shop featuring optional in-app purchases, and daily rewards. The game is still in active development, so you can expect new content, features, and improvements to be added in future playtests.
If you experience any issues after updating Minecraft Blast, we recommend deleting the game and reinstalling the latest version from the App Store. Please note that reinstalling the game will reset your progress from the previous playtest.
Your progress and any in-game purchases can be saved until the next playtest. To keep them, either leave the game installed on your device or create a King account. With a King account, your progress will be saved across devices and if you delete and reinstall the game.
Please note that once this playtest ends, the game will not receive any new updates until the next test.
